Note: We're continuing to provide frequent updates to this story. Check back at this post often. Latest updates: It's possible—but far from confirmed—icy conditions played a role in a Tuesday morning plane crash on Route 287 that killed all five people aboard. But investigators are only in the earliest stage of their work, a National Transportation Safety Board representative said. Speaking at Morris Township's municipal building mid-afternoon, Robert Gretz of the NTSB stressed it could take 6 to 12 months before a full report on the crash, which took place near exit 35, is released, and a lot of investigatory work is ahead.

Neighbor said pilot seemed to be trying to avoid homes.
Raw Video: Michelle Bellog of Springbrook Road in Morris Township says she saw the plane that crashed into Route 287 heading over her neighborhood, and worried debris would come down on her roof. "It's very sad," she said. "Thankfully it didn't hit any houses. I was terrified. It was so low that the houses shook.

Anderson and Jane is not a bridge issue. We can't blame everything on the bridge. Bad driving and carelessness are the issues at hand here. We barely a month into 2013 and already there are 3 pedestrians hit and one killed in pedestrian vs car altercations. When is this going to stop? Don't blame the bridge put the blame where it belongs on carelessness and a lack of enforcement. more ›
